What's a Wreck?

A Cake Wreck is any cake that is unintentionally sad, silly, creepy, inappropriate - you name it. A Wreck is not necessarily a poorly-made cake; it's simply one I find funny, for any of a number of reasons. Anyone who has ever smeared frosting on a baked good has made a Wreck at one time or another, so I'm not here to vilify decorators: Cake Wrecks is just about finding the funny in unexpected, sugar-filled places.

I still don't understand how a cake flavour can be 'yellow'. What does that even mean??? At least it's a distraction from wondering what the wrecks are supposed to be. I don't know sports but even I can see a few things wrong there...

1) Where are the foxes in those soxes?2) This basketball looks more like roadkill. See the tire tread marks on it?3) Maybe that strange creature popping up on the right side is the Loch Ness Monster's cousin, the Land Ness Monster.4) They put this in the display the wrong way. It should have been turned sideways with the thumb down and it would be quite appropriate. 5) I noticed those two things popping up out of the ground on either side. They must be gopher balls.6) Yup, does look like a turkey. 7) Shouldn't that be "feild gaol"?8) I know what happened here. The ball on the right all by itself farted. That's why all the others have moved away.
